1. What was your reaction about being FOTM?
I was surprised, honestly. The spot has kind of died down since school and classes have resumed for the most of us, and it's sad. I didn't post that much - though I've been trying to find time. So, thanks for voting for me guys :)
2. Favorite Character?
I think most people should know this by now, but if you're newer to the spot and have decided to read my 'exciting' interview... Then Tecna is my favorite. She's been my favorite since the very beginning and I'm sure she will always be my favorite.
3. Least Favorite Character?
Bloom. If you want more information as to why I dislike her, click here.
4. Favorite Transformation?
I think it's a tie between Winx/Charmix and Enchantix. I really love the simplicity of the original transformations and even though Charmix wasn't this whole big new outfit, I really love the way the girls earn the charms. Believing in yourself and admitting your mistakes and weaknesses is something really hard to do - and I really connected more with the characters in season two because of this transformation. And Enchantix is just really beautiful in my opinion, and the way that they earn it is really great too; each of them showing how selfless they can be (except Bloom. Cheap ass).
5. Least Favorite Transformation?
Bloomix. It's a cheap and useless transformation - and it doesn't even look that good. The way that they earned it was just like Enchantix: you have to perform some brave act. But the 'brave acts' are just - Stella and Layla avoiding monsters gives them their new powers. Much brave. Such wow. And an entire form based on how great Bloom is? Can we not.
6. What do you like about the Winx Spot?
I love how friendly everyone is towards each other and how supportive and willing to help we are. It kind of stinks that we've all been busy and the spot has died down, but hopefully everyone will eventually come back on - during breaks and whatnot.
7. Is there anything you wish to improve on this spot?
Not really. There isn't really anything that this spot is lacking in.
8. What do you miss most about the old episodes?
The plot. The past two seasons have been totally lacking in anything original and interesting. Season five was boring and irritating with the amount of "go green" propaganda was just sickening. Season six is just annoying and even though the animation gets slightly better (albeit flashy), the Winx are just going around to the different parts of the world and the one episode I watched - the one where they go to China - was super racist.
9. Favorite Season?
It's a tie between one and three. I really like the first season because of the plot and how each character develops, and of course, the Trix are awesome in this season. And season three just has an awesome plot and Valtor is just bae.
10. Least Favorite Season?
I haven't watched that much of season six so I'm probably going to say season five. It was irritating and the plot was nonsensical and this was the season that brought us the dreaded... 3D EPISODES *screeches*
11. Pixies, Pets or Selkies?
I like the pixies the most. I feel like they helped bring out the best in the Winx when they were first introduced and most of them have really cool designs (especially the older pixies like Athena and Discordia). The pets were alright, but I really only liked Artu. And the Selkies were just no.
12. Faragonda, Saladin, or Griffin?
I like Faragonda and Griffin a lot. They're both badass and get stuff done. They've been mentor figures for both the antagonists and protagonists and learning a little more on their backstories as the series progressed was really cool. Saladin is alright, but he really hasn't done as much as these ladies have.
13. Is There anything I could improve on to make FOTM better?
No, you're doing a great job running this Sam :)
14. What is something not many people know about you?
Uh...maybe not everyone knows I'm half French? Yep. My mom is from a little village called Bersac (which is in a Provence known as Limoges). I've actually been speaking, reading, and writing French for longer than I have in English (I'm even minoring in it right now). And I guess I could add that I'm the measly height of 4'11 (roughly 150 cm). No, you did not read that wrong. I have been this height for awhile and the doctor says I will not grow any more (since I have finished puberty). A lot of people have said it makes me look really cute and I honestly don't care. It doesn't bother me anymore.
15. Why were you drawn to Winx Club?
I honestly have no idea why I started watching the show. I was just flipping through the channels one Saturday morning and I saw the opening theme song and I just started to watch it. I didn't start at the very beginning (I can remember that) but I was just drawn to it. And then the obsession sunk in. I watched the show nonstop and flipped shit whenever 4kids would do those 'back-to-back' episodes; one hour of Winx. So. Awesome. And then I just bought all the crap I could. I never thought I would still like the show today, and it's honestly the girliest thing I still remotely enjoy. No regrets though (hue hue).
- sorry this took so long ;3; but here are my replies.
Congrats again Aurie
